Chapter 677
"You didn’t provide any help, instead you stepped on other's painstaking efforts and took advantage of it . State Preceptor, you flaunt yourself as fair and equitable . Why did you overlook such injustice? What kind of unfairness is this acquiescence?" Every single word and sentence Qi Xia had spoken was reasonable .
Pei Yuan's complexion was black . Everything Qi Xia had said was a fact . The treatment received by Shen Yanxiao was harsher than what other people had received . It was absolutely without consideration for others . Moreover, Li Qi’s censure was really unreasonable . It was contrary to common sense .
Qi Xia looked at Pei Yuan, who had averted his gaze, and said with a smile, "Since Little Xiao is a Warlock, the Emperor doesn't like her . You don't like her either . If I haven't guessed wrongly, the purpose of State Preceptor on the surface is for inspection . But in fact, you are secretly trying to insert personnel to control The Rising Sun City . Isn't that right?"
Pei Yuan was inwardly surprised . Qi Xia's cleverness had been known all over the country . But he did not think that he could actually see everything so thoroughly .
"You don't accept her, but you want her to help you open up a city in the Barren Land, and then you plan to seize it after the city is built . State Preceptor, don't you think such way of handling things is extremely ugly?" There was a hint of coldness in Qi Xia's smile . Some words couldn't be said by Shen Yanxiao, but he could say them for her .
On her behalf, he would speak all the injustice and prejudices of the world against her!
"Just a mere profession can make you treat an innocent little girl like this? I'm sorry, but I can't stand it nor accept it . Even though I'm a person of Long Xuan Empire, I definitely won't stand with the united front against a little girl . " Qi Xia's eloquent speech made Pei Yuan speechless and ashamed .
Those words were as painful as slapping his face .
Indeed, he clearly knew how unfair this was to Shen Yanxiao, but he still allowed the prejudices in his heart to continue to spread, letting Li Qi act arrogant and despotic .
“Well, my reasons are already very clear . The others' ideas are the same as mine . So I must urge the State Preceptor to not continue struggling . If you really intend to rush out of here with Bai Ze, we’ll definitely command our Mythological Beasts to take you down . " Qi Xia grinned, delivering an absolute threat .
Pei Yuan's heart was in total despair . The five Mythological Beasts of the five great clans had already overwhelmed people . Not to mention there were still three other Mythological Beasts who were glaring like a tiger watching their prey and whose masters were unknown . He really had no other choice .
"Prince Long Yue is innocent . As long as you let us leave, I will not speak of today's things . " Pei Yuan closed his eyes and compromised .
Shen Yanxiao looked at Pei Yuan's tragic expression, and glance at the somewhat silly Prince then said, "No . "
"You don't believe me? Even though I was muddled for a while, I, Pei Yuan, have a life code to keep promises throughout my life . And I promise that I will never go back on my words!"
Shen Yanxiao said with a chuckle, "It doesn't matter if I believe you or not . You have hundreds of people on your side . Even if you can manage your own mouth, can you control the mouths of other people? I'll tell you the truth . There's one person on your team that I don't intend to let off . Though, initially, I wanted to deal with him after you returned to the Imperial Capital . But now . . . "
Shen Yanxiao’s voice gradually faded, and her figure impressively flashed in front of a certain person the next second .
